    They didn’t get real aggressive but they locked together some.. small 6 and a spike... they are finally moving on. Think I’m gonna go warm up for a bit and then come back for the afternoon..just don’t think it’s time for all day sits yet...

    I changed stands thinking the same. I am not hearing very much gunshot considering it is youth gun season? My brother in law took my nephew yesterday and they only saw 2 does on the walk out to the truck? Pretty slow!

    I left my house at 2:15 and was set up in my stand at 6:00. Saw two little bucks just before 11. Just got internet service.

    I was tempted but the 2 bucks walked down my exit trail so don’t want to chance spooking them. It’s warmed up a bit now in the mid 40s

    So the other part of the land I hunt which is 1/2 mile away (500ac) has just produced this, we have only started hanging stands and cameras about 2 weeks ago. Now I don’t know what to do stay or move?

    Well I had 6 deer come by this morning. Just a picture perfect morning. 1 small buck early then a mom and fawn with a small buck chasing. Momma was running for her life and the poor fawn was just trying to keep up. 2 nice doe a bit after that. Don't think the big boys are chasing fully yet around me.

    I ended up seeing somewhere around a dozen does, a 10 point, a 7 point and a basket 8... Im down for some food and will be back out soon on a different property. Just a matter of time before one of my bigger bucks visit the scrape while Im there.

    I think that’s where you need to be. Gotta make your move when he is slipping up.

    Bonus, I drilled a huge gobbler! Aimed for his neck and damn near decapitaed him.
    I had about 20 total around me, all hens, 2 jakes and 2 gobblers. and somehow was able to draw and not get busted. So lucky
    He's on ice now, thinking of getting him mounted.

    Congrats that is awesome. I didn't hunt today unfortunately. Today is a card checking day. Good luck to everyone who is lucky enough to be in the tree.

    Got my deer cut up and scored today. He scored 140 5/8. He is my biggest to date. I never managed to get over that mid 130's mark.
